Robert Jenrick has been sacked as shadow minister on account of the shadow leader thinking he's thinking of defecting.
Presumably this encourages him to defect really? Even if he wasn't planning to leave, why stay around in a party that can't win and is sacking people on paranoid presumptions that they will leave?
Seems like all the rats at the Conservative party are jumping ship to Reform. People will be voting Reform at the next election and literally getting the exact same ministers as when they voted Conservative at the last one.
This isn't like the usual "Vote X, get Y", where the broken electoral system lets the least popular party in because the popular political wing is divided. This is literally "Vote reform, Reform win, but you get the exact people who were standing as Conservative last time"
Is this really good for Reform? It's voters are trying to avoid voting Tory, surely? Adding all the old tory ministers to their ranks has to hurt rather than help?

One very important point made by Maia Sandu, President of Moldova, in this interview: if you have dark money corrupting your elections, you cannot wait until after the elections to investigate, arrest, and debar candidates: once the corrupt are elected, you're stuck with them.

Palestine Action have never been a terrorist group, have never tried to terrorize the British public. The attempt to classify them as one was unjust, authoritarian, and motivated by support for a foreign state committing war crimes.
I'm mostly just surprised that judges appointed by the British state operating in secret agree. Usually they back the corrupt British state entirely.
Yvette Cooper should be resigning in disgrace, suspected of treachery. Every MP and Lord that waved the proscription through through should be ashamed and probably also fired.

Take it from me, as an Australian who’s worked in politics: strongly reconsider following Australia’s lead in *any* sort of policy. Learn from our egregious mistakes. Please. #ukpol #SocialMediaBan

Zack's right of course. Labour only really look incoherent if you assume they are trying to do good for the country or win elections for themselves.
If you assume they have been bought and paid for by the oil, gas, arms-trade, private health-care and gambling industry and don't care if they're unpopular just want to do what they've been paid to do they look perfectly coherent.
Labour bar their best candidate, Reform run some knob head off of GBNews, and the Greens run a great working class candidate from the local area who can speak her mind well and explain the way the rest of politics, including Reform, is run by billionaires.

Hahhahhaa. 😆
The Labour party are utterly determined that they will obliterate themselves by proving themselves to be run by an executive committee who will not tolerate anything but extractive neoloberal capitalism,
They are a party against their own members.
Andy Burnham has been blocked from standing as a candidate for an upcoming parliamentary by-election in Gorton and Denton by Labour's ruling body.

Starmer's speech is full of regret, so sorry that he believed the lies of Mandelson.
Now we are expected to trust the judgement of a man who believed the lies of a person known as the Prince Of Darkness in order to appoint him as ambassador to America, precisely because of his relationship with the Epstein and Trump circle.
If not for his relationship with those fuckers, why make him ambassador?
What did he have over the existing ambassador other than his relationship with the whole Epstein crowd?
Nothing.
He was chosen for that position by Starmer exactly because of that relationship which Starmer now pleads he didn't know about as he was fooled by the lies of the dark prince.
Nope. I don't buy it. Starmer can still fuck off.

One of the best things about Brexit is how we left a power-block in which we had a veto and a vote and a large soft power reputation and a real say in it's policy and outcomes.
And now, instead, we have to do whatever the mad king in America wants. Bomb whoever he wants. Let him store his weapons and his bombs here. Fly his airplanes on our runways. Pay whatever tariff on trade he demands, accept his hormone ridden meat and unsanitary chicken processes.
And we have less say in it all than Puerto Rico, much less than any actual full blown state.
We ceded control of the EU to Germany, just abandoned any say in what happens there for no reason at all, and are left begging treats from a powerful clown's table like a yapping little toy dog.
The final step down the power-escalator, from empire to now less say in world affairs than Austria or Finland which at least have EU voting rights and members in the EU parliament.
Now just airport 1, a runway which the US uses as it pleases and no say in anything.
What a move from England, absolute masterclass of dim witted self destructive spite. Couldn't hope for a better example. Textbook. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
